MORE TRUTHS COME DRIPPING IN.....

It was as early as the summer of 2002 when the first studies of who was being held at Guantanamo were being conducted by the military....and the findings were rather startling as the military determined that they were not holding the "worst of the worst" but instead had a bunch of guys who were wrongly picked up...those reports were not leaked out until 2004 long after the American public was convinced that the inmates at Guantanamo could and would gnaw threw electric power lines or some BS like that....anyway, adding to the evidence that the Bush administration knew from the early days that most of the guys it was holding were innocent is this affidavit from Col. Lawrence Wilkerson who was Colin Powell's chief of staff from 2002-2005.
Perhaps the best summary of the Bush administrations "philosophy" in regards to the men at Guantanamo is this quote from Wilkerson's affidavit: "If hundreds of innocent individuals had to suffer in order to detain a handful of hardcore terrorists, so be it."
Right in line with the 1 percent doctrine....
